Posted on February 05, 2009
Satanic There just doesn't seem to be any other way to describe the way that Al Quaeda is allegedly using rape as a way of ensuring its supply of suicide bombers. "Al-Qaeda accused of using male rape to 'create' suicide bombers": The Sun quotes Algerian militant Abu Baçir El Assimi: "The sexual act on young recruits aged between 16 to 19 was a means to urge them to commit suicide operations...

Great Moments in Policing Another example of how any interaction with the police can be life or death for civilians. It's pretty amazing how the police officer thinks that ramming the guy - who had three small children in the car - when he was obviously pulling over makes sense...

Posted on February 03, 2009
Lileks is on a Roll James Lileks takes on some official Brit dandy who thinks that the government should be more actively involved in aborting more British babies. The whole thing is good, but this part is exceptional: Porritt, a former chairman of the Green party, says the government must improve family planning, even if it means shifting money from curing illness to increasing contraception

California Dreamin' Well, what does happen when the Left gets control. According to Victor Davis Hanson the result is social dysfunction: For years the open borders lobby accused ?them? (whites? The establishment? Conservatives? etc.) of racism in wanting the border with Mexico closed, an end to state entitlements to illegal aliens (remember the Satanic Prop 187?), and deportations of

Great Moments in Christian Love A "Truly Reformed" guy is upset that various Calvinist publications dare to think that Anne Rice's turn away from atheism isn't a bad thing: Puzzlingly, Anne Rice continues to get a "pass" from Christian/oid writers. I remarked on this phenomenon once here, at its most baffling (WORLD magazine)...

Another Liberal Scare-Myth Debunked "SO, WAIT, ALL THAT TALK ABOUT THE ?VANISHING RAIN FORESTS? WAS CRAP?" So, let me see if I understand this, plants grow??? Yet another liberal crisis joins the tank with "Famine 1975," scarce world resources, the "population crisis" and global warming.

Disturbing Obama is already running

Posted on January 25, 2009
Disturbing Obama is already running against the media - the small part of the media that isn't part of liberal hegemony. He's also sounding like a guy who believes that "bipartisan" means "do things my way": "You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done," he told top GOP leaders, whom he had invited to the White House to discuss his nearly $1 trillion stimulus package...

If you liked "Chairman Mao's Little Red Book", you will love "President Barry's Little Blue Book". More self-indulgence by the Liberal Fascist left from the History Company's publication of a colection of Obama quotes. The product description - with its tacit assumption that people in the New York publishing industry think everyone thinks this way because everyone they know thinks this way -
